4 Pushing the Boundaries of Online Education To Our Fellow Shareholders: K 12 was founded to give every child access to an excellent education, recognizing that technology could enable this to happen. K 12 has come a long way in the past decade toward fulfilling that mission and now partners with states, districts, schools, parents, and students to meet their education needs. Today, we are enhancing the educational experience as well as changing how education is delivered and consumed. Most importantly, we are individualizing education for students from all geographic and economic strata in the United States and around the world. K 12 continues to broaden its reach, serving students in 85 countries and all 50 states, including more than 2,000 school districts across the United States. This transformation is a testament to the quality of K 12 s products and services that are designed to improve learning outcomes for all students. Online education has removed the nexus between geography and quality, opening up a new frontier for students seeking an individualized education experience. K 12 continues to receive important industry awards for the quality of its curriculum. During this past year, K 12 was named the leading provider of online curriculum to school districts by Market Data Retrieval s research service, EdNET Insight. In 2012, K¹² was once again honored by the Association of Educational Publishers (AEP). K¹² is proud to have won the 2012 Distinguished Achievement Award for Fundamentals of Geometry and Algebra (6th Grade Math) and to be named a 2012 Distinguished Achievement Award finalist for Elementary School Language Arts (Kindergarten). AEP award recipients are honored for their high-quality educational content, and the Distinguished Achievement Awards recognize the year s finest achievements in educational products. Our employees work especially hard to create the best education experience for K 12 learners, and we are proud that their accomplishments are being widely recognized. We remain dedicated to delivering world-class curriculum and education. The rapid adoption of technology-based learning is a significant education paradigm shift, one of the largest ever seen. Today, we are facilitating the transition from the old chalk-and-talk, one-size-fits-all education model to a technology-driven individualized learning environment for every student. Technology-based online education is transformational, and K 12 continues to lead the way so that all students can obtain the education they deserve. We will continue to work with states, schools, parents, and students to create education models that prepare students for the 21st century. We strive to help more students succeed, graduate, prepare for postsecondary education, and enter the global workforce.

5 We continue to grow rapidly and expand our footprint. This school year, we opened a school in New Jersey that combines online learning with physical classroom participation (a Flex school), as well as K 12 -managed online public schools in two new states Iowa and New Mexico. These are in addition to Louisiana and Tennessee, which opened last year. Also, enrollment caps have been expanded or eliminated in several states. Technology-based online education is transformational, and K 12 continues to lead the way. Our three lines of business full-time managed public schools (turn-key management services provided to public schools), institutional business (educational products and services provided to school districts, public schools, and other educational institutions that we do not manage), and international and private pay business (private schools for which we charge student tuition and make direct consumer sales) are all growing rapidly. At our full-time managed public schools, revenues grew more than 31%, from $454.0 million in fiscal year 2011 to $596.1 million in In fiscal year 2012, our institutional business revenues grew more than 56% year-over-year, from $46.8 million to $73.2 million, while our international and private pay business revenues increased in excess of 80%, from $21.7 million to $39.1 million. Despite a challenging economic climate, we are pleased to report that overall revenue growth in fiscal year 2012 was almost 36% compared to the prior year, driven primarily by organic growth. In addition to serving more students and schools, we are also dedicated to driving efficiencies that allow us to deliver more to students for less. In fact, this year we are starting to see positive results from many of the strategic acquisitions made in the last few years. These acquisitions are strengthening our domestic and global product lines, services, and market reach. As we complete the integration of these acquisitions, they are now providing broader product lines, improved company-wide economies of scale, and expanded revenue opportunities all positive building blocks that we believe will contribute to our future growth and profitability. Helping Dropouts Graduate K 12 and Chicago Public Schools Youth Connection Charter School launched the YCCS Virtual High School in 2009, a dropout intervention program. YCCS Virtual High School provides a rigorous blend of individualized, online and face-to-face instruction, plus social development support. The nationwide need is critical: a report from the Institute of Education Sciences, National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), found that about 25% of public school students drop out before they finish high school. This Chicago public school program serves 18- to 21-year-old students who have previously dropped out of school and need to complete less than two years worth of credits in order to graduate. The students split their time in half between online and in-class learning, meeting daily at Malcolm X City College for teacher-led instruction combined with virtual classrooms where students take online courses. This demonstrates the flexibility of K 12 - blended models. The flexible, individualized aspect of online courses is particularly valuable to at-risk students, who associate the existing brick-and-mortar classroom model and traditional schedule with their failure. YCCS Virtual High School continues to be a solid success for students who previously dropped out of school. For the third year in a row, more than 90% of the eligible senior class successfully graduated. This compares to a 2012 graduation rate for Chicago public schools of about 61% (projected to be 60.6% as of June 2012).

7 When we speak of modernizing the classroom, we are talking about improving the way students learn. Infrastructure Investment We continue to invest in infrastructure and software. For example, our new customer relationship management (CRM) and marketing automation systems, state-of-theart second data center, and Oracle enterprise resource planning system provide a more robust, company-wide infrastructure that allows us to drive efficiencies, leverage legacy technologies, and scale our business faster. Together, our infrastructure investments and strategic acquisitions will allow the company to manage and grow a much larger, and more efficient, domestic and international education enterprise that can better achieve our primary mission of delivering a quality education to all students who seek this choice. Academic Performance We believe that the best way to measure academic performance is to use an academic growth model that quantifies the actual progress each child makes in a school year. Since the school year, K 12 has measured academic growth in its managed public schools using the Scantron Performance Series an independent, computer-adaptive test in both reading and math that students take in the fall, and then again in the spring of the same academic year. We favor this approach because the high percentage of new students each year, coupled with the fact that so many students matriculate behind grade level, make traditional state tests of limited use to evaluate these schools. Student academic growth in our managed public schools is compared to the Scantron norm group, which is comprised of thousands of students who represent national student demographics. For the last two academic years, ( and ), students in K 12 -managed public schools have consistently met or outperformed the Scantron norm group gain in 94% of the grade levels in reading, and in 75% of the grade levels in math. Additionally, we know from the data that the longer students are enrolled in K 12 -managed public schools, the more likely they are to be proficient, i.e., on grade level, as determined by state standardized tests. K 12 will be issuing an Annual Academic Report in the fall of 2012 that will explain how we measure the academic performance of our students and the associated challenges and inaccuracies of applying traditional performance evaluation methods to virtual public schools, given their high student growth rates and dynamic student populations. Continued Research and Product Development Since we launched the company 12 years ago, more than 2,000 school districts have partnered with us to provide curricula, services, and support for online and blended learning programs. In that span, we have delivered more than 4 million online course enrollments including credit recovery, world languages, Advanced Placement, electives, and core courses. This year, we expanded our curriculum portfolio to nearly 700 online courses and titles. Over the past decade, we have invested $305 million in curriculum and systems; and we will continue to invest in new curriculum, technology, research, and learning methodologies to ensure that we remain innovative and can provide additional capabilities for our students and the schools and school districts we serve. In addition to bolstering our course catalog this year, we continued to invest in, develop, and deliver new online technologies, learning platforms, tools, and applications. We introduced PEAK 12, an innovative application that will allow schools to implement, personalize, and manage their district-wide online programs, including K 12 and (coming soon) third-party content on a single platform. This new intelligent management system is another example of how we partner with schools to provide a complete continuum of online learning solutions.

8 At its core, K 12 is a partner to states, districts, and schools that want to offer families effective education choices. We also delivered more content that can be accessed through multiple online marketplaces, such as itunes, Google Play, and Amazon, and unveiled a variety of new applications for mobile phones and tablets. We also launched 56 virtual labs and 35 e-books. To help address the national problem of students performing below grade level in math, we introduced the National Math Lab program during the school year, a pilot program designed to help students in grades 5 10 catch up to grade level in math. Because first-year results were promising, we are expanding the program for the school year to serve as many as 10,000 students. Dubai Women s College High School Opens This year, K 12 helped launch the Dubai Women s College High School in the United Arab Emirates. Working together, K 12 s Flex School Partnership and the Dubai Women s College launched this innovative college prep high school that prepares Middle Eastern teenage girls for the rigors of postsecondary study. The blended learning school includes Emirati courses taught by Arabic-speaking teachers in traditional classrooms and American courses taught in English using online curriculum from K 12 International Academy. Students log in to the online school from dedicated computer learning labs, where certified K 12 teachers help guide students through the interactive lessons and assessments via one-to-one chat, , and Skype video. Flex Academies Launched Opened this year, the Newark (NJ) Prep Charter School offers the best of online learning with traditional onsite education. This fast-growing blended, or hybrid, education model features engaging, individualized learning through a combination of traditional classroom teachers, online curriculum, tools, and resources. The Newark school is now the third Flex Academy we have partnered with and helped launch in the last three years; the others are San Francisco Flex Academy and Silicon Valley Flex Academy. Students attend school five days a week for a full day of instruction, delivered in the classroom and online. The K 12 curriculum includes a robust catalog of more than 130 core and elective courses, including electives in subjects such as art, science, history, business/career, and technology that are not available in area schools. Each student has his or her own computer at no charge and takes courses independently throughout the day. Students learn at a flexible pace under the guidance and supervision of state-certified teachers. Those students who need more support can go more slowly, while students who are advanced in certain subjects can move ahead more quickly. Students are also able to participate in extracurricular clubs and social activities. Alexandria City Public Schools Opens T.C. Satellite Campus The T.C. Satellite Campus is the first comprehensive, nontraditional satellite high school campus in Northern Virginia. The hybrid school offers the Aventa curriculum, flexible scheduling, internships, one-to-one student-centered support, and a new pathway to graduation that fits the needs of a diverse group of students. K 12 has worked closely with Alexandria City Public Schools to develop the first of many planned small satellite campuses, designed to meet the needs of students who require additional schedule flexibility because of family or work obligations, students who want to accelerate their learning and get to college more quickly, and others who, for varied reasons, prefer not to attend classes in a large high school setting.

9 Partnering with States, Districts, Schools, Parents, and Students When we speak of modernizing the classroom, we are talking about improving the way students learn. To achieve this goal, we have invested hundreds of millions of dollars to develop rigorous curriculum, learning platforms, and technology-based instructional and assessment tools for teachers to use in schools. We are a leading innovator of technologybased, personalized, and individualized K 12 education providing each student with the opportunity to maximize his or her potential and achieve academic success. that teachers are an essential part of a great education. We will continue to invest and innovate so that teachers and students have the tools they need to receive a worldclass education, regardless of geography, financial status, or demographic circumstances. The most exciting part of this critical journey is that we are just beginning and we believe the best is yet to come. At its core, K 12 is a partner to states, districts, and schools that want to offer families additional, effective education choices. As acceptance of online education continues to increase, and as K 12 continues to grow, those threatened by choice and technology may continue to oppose innovation. We will continue to demonstrate and communicate the effectiveness of our products, services, and educational solutions. We know technology, student choice, and innovative companies are essential to ensuring that all children have access to an education that allows them to pursue and achieve their life aspirations in the 21st century. We will not rest until this becomes a reality. Sincerely, We are taking individualized learning further with adaptive learning. Our product development team is working on cutting-edge adaptive applications that, for example, deliver immediate feedback to students taking a test or quiz, and then automatically adjust the next lesson to reflect their competencies and deficits. MARK 12 Reading is one such product that has shown strong results in accelerating learning for students behind grade level. Nathaniel A. Davis Chairman Ronald J. Packard Chief Executive Officer and Founder This year s success and growth would not have been possible without the collective drive and determination of our more than 3,300 global employees, including the thousands of teachers who deliver our curriculum. We believe that education is fundamentally about children and

17 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS Company Overview We are a technology-based education company. We offer proprietary curriculum, software systems and educational services designed to facilitate individualized learning for students primarily in kindergarten through 12th grade, or K-12. Our mission is to maximize a child s potential by providing access to an engaging and effective education, regardless of geographic location or socio-economic background. Since our inception, we have invested more than $305 million to develop and, to a lesser extent, acquire curriculum and online learning platforms that promote mastery of core concepts and skills for students of all abilities. K12 provides a continuum of technology-based educational products and solutions to districts, public schools, private schools, charter schools and families as we strive to transform the educational experience into one that delivers individualized education on a highly scalable basis. As an innovator in K-12 online education, we believe we have attained distinctive core competencies that allow us to meet the varied needs of online public schools, school districts, states, private schools and individual learners. These core competencies include our ability to create engaging curriculum, train teachers to be effective in online instruction, provide turn-key management services to online schools, customize online learning programs for school districts, develop innovative new offerings (such as our Flex schools and National Math Lab) and assist legislators and policy makers in understanding the many benefits of online learning to complement and transform traditional schools. These strengths enable us to provide a unique set of products and services primarily to three lines of business that share many common attributes, including, curriculum, learning systems, management expertise, logistical systems and marketing. These businesses are: Managed Public Schools (turn-key management services provided to public schools), Institutional Business (educational products and services provided to school districts, public schools and other educational institutions that we do not manage), and International and Private Pay Business (private schools for which we charge student tuition and make direct consumer sales). Managed Public Schools Institutional Business International and Private Pay Business Full-time virtual schools K12 curriculum Managed private schools Blended schools Aventa curriculum The Keystone School Flex schools A+ curriculum George Washington University Online HS Passport schools Middlebury joint venture K 12 International Academy Discovery schools Pre-kindergarten IS Berne Other blended schools Post-secondary WEB (via investment) Independent course sales (Consumer) Managed Public Schools. Virtual Public Schools. The majority of our revenue is derived from virtual public schools that we manage. In addition to access to our course catalog, course materials and, in certain cases, student computers, we provide these schools with a variety of management, technology and academic support services. In full-time virtual managed schools, students receive online lessons over the Internet and utilize offline learning materials we provide. The full-time virtual schools we manage are generally associated with different curricula and orientations. K12 managed schools (often named virtual acadamies) serve K-8 or K-8 and high school students, principally utilize K 12 curriculum, and attract both mainstream and at-risk students. In addition to these virtual academies, we manage Insight schools, which serve middle school and high school students, typically utilize the Aventa curriculum and tend to attract at-risk students. iq Academies serve middle school and high school students, primarily utilize the Aventa 1

18 curriculum, and are generally only partially managed by K12 typically, the academic program and regulatory compliance for iq Academies are managed by their host school or school district. Blended Public Schools. In addition to our full-time virtual programs, we also manage and sell our products and services to blended schools (sometimes referred to as hybrid schools), which are public schools that combine online and face-to-face instruction in many different arrangements with varying amounts of time spent in a physical learning center. For both virtual and blended managed schools, we generally take responsibility for all aspects of the management of the schools, including monitoring academic achievement, teacher recruitment and training, compensation recommendations for school personnel, financial management, enrollment processing and procurement of curriculum, equipment and other required services. Funding is provided primarily by state governments. For the school year, we will provide turn-key management services to Managed Public Schools in 32 states and the District of Columbia. Institutional Business. We work closely as partners with a growing number of districts and schools, enabling them to offer their students an array of online education solutions, including full-time virtual and blended programs, semester courses and supplemental solutions. In addition to curriculum, systems and programs, we also provide teacher training, teaching services and other support services. These institutions include public schools, school districts, private schools, charter schools and early childhood learning centers. Additionally, we operate a joint venture with Middlebury College, known as Middlebury Interactive Languages LLC ( MIL ), to develop and market online foreign language courses. For the school year, we served school districts or individual schools in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, including those where the regulatory environment restricts or prohibits state-wide online programs. International and Private Pay Business. We operate three online private schools: The Keystone School, the K 12 International Academy and the George Washington University Online High School. We also manage a foreign brick and mortar private school (International School of Berne) and have entered into agreements which enable us to distribute our products and services to over 1,000 school partners throughout the world. We serve students from 85 countries around the world. We also are pursuing international opportunities where we believe there is significant demand for a quality online education; our principal customers are expatriate families and foreign students who wish to study in English. Additionally, our curriculum is sold to end user customers who desire to educate their children outside of the traditional school system or to supplement their child s traditional education. To support the growing demand for K-12 online education, we completed several strategic acquisitions since 2010 to expand our product line, primarily in our Institutional and Private Pay businesses, and to gain greater scale across our operations. Given our rapid growth, we have begun to make significant capital investments in our infrastructure, including most recently the core for a company-wide enterprise resource planning ( ERP ) system, a second data center, and an upgrade to our customer relationship management ( CRM ) system. As we continue to leverage our core competencies and integrate our acquisitions, we believe we are well positioned to drive and manage the substantial growth we have experienced since our first year as a public company when we achieved revenues of $141 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, Since fiscal year 2010, our revenues have increased from $384 million to $708 million, representing growth of 84% over two years. 2

19 Our Market The U.S. market for K-12 education is large and the acceptance of online learning continues to grow. For example: According to the National Center for Education Statistics ( NCES ), a division of the U.S. Department of Education, approximately 49.5 million students attended K-12 public schools during the school year. In addition, according to National Home Education Research, approximately two million students are home schooled and, according to the NCES, approximately six million students are enrolled in private schools. Many of these students will take an online course and a small percentage will enroll in a full-time online program. According to the NCES, the public school system alone encompassed more than 98,000 schools and approximately 13,900 districts during the school year. The NCES estimates that total spending in the K-12 market was $650 billion for the school year. According to the International Association for K-12 Online Learning ( inacol ), as of August 2010, 48 states had established a significant form of online learning initiative. In addition, according to Ambient Insight, an international market research firm, in 2011, 1.68 million K-12 students participated in a formal online learning program. Many parents and educators are seeking alternatives to traditional classroom-based education for a variety of reasons. Demand for these alternatives is evident in the expanding number of choices available to parents and students. For example, public charter schools emerged in 1988 to provide an alternative to traditional public schools and, according to the Center for Education Reform, have grown by 230% since Currently, there are over 5,000 charter schools operating in 41 states and the District of Columbia with an estimated enrollment of over 1.9 million students according to the Center for Education Reform. Similarly, acceptance of online learning initiatives, including not only virtual and blended public schools, but also online courses, credit recovery, remediation, testing and Internet-based professional development, has continued to grow. Districts are also rapidly adopting online learning to expand course offerings, provide schedule flexibility, increase graduation rates and lower the cost to deliver education. Demand for Education Alternatives: The Market Opportunity and the K 12 Solutions As evidenced by the varying options being utilized by K-12 students, no single educational model works equally well for all students. Children today utilize technology in all aspects of their lives and we expect them to extend their use of technology to their educational needs and choices. Our business is modeled on the premise that every student has the right to an education that is individualized, personalized and, available anywhere at any time. We also believe all students can benefit from more rigorous and engaging content. We believe that full-time virtual schools will meet the needs of a small percentage of the overall K-12 student population, but do represent and will continue to represent a large and growing opportunity in absolute terms. Across our educational programs, families come from a broad range of social, economic and academic backgrounds. They share the desire for individualized instruction to maximize their children s potential. Examples of students for whom this solution fits include, but are not limited to, families with: (i) students seeking to learn faster or slower than they could in a one size fits all traditional classroom; (ii) students with safety, social and health concerns about their local school; (iii) students with disabilities who are underserved in traditional classrooms; (iv) students for whom the local public school is not meeting their needs; (v) students who need flexibility, such as student-athletes and performers who are not able to attend regularly-scheduled classes; (vi) collegebound students seeking to bolster their college readiness and application appeal by taking additional 3

20 Advanced Placement, honors and/or elective courses; (vii) high school dropouts; (viii) students of military families who desire high quality, consistent education across moves; and (ix) students for whom their current school option is otherwise not working. Our individualized learning approach allows students to optimize their educational experience and, therefore, their chances of achieving their goals. The schools we manage, both public and private, which generated the majority of our revenue (approximately 84% in fiscal 2012), serve this demand. We believe that the majority of students in the United States will continue to be educated in school buildings, although we further believe that the academic benefits for many students and the significant savings for taxpayers will continue to drive states and districts to incorporate online solutions into their school-based programs. One of the challenges the traditional schools continue to face is adoption of technology and innovative new learning modalities. In our Institutional Business, we offer a complete solution for districts and schools that need a turn-key option and also offer online curriculum and services on a solutions-oriented, individualized basis for those customers who need less than a full-service offering. We believe this range of options creates the opportunity for us to serve the majority of students who will learn within school buildings. Therefore, we have invested significant resources, organically and through acquisitions, in developing product offerings that afford us the flexibility to serve different types of customers with varying value propositions and price points that are adaptable to an institution s capabilities and needs. We have and will continue to pursue selected markets outside the United States where we believe our curricula can address local market needs. We believe that our core competencies, coupled with the significant investments we have made in our infrastructure and our strategic acquisitions and partnerships, position us to offer educational resources for all types of students. Regardless of whether a student chooses to remain in a classroom or seeks an alternative setting, attends public or private school, lives in the United States or abroad, wants to take online classes on a full or part-time basis or is an advanced or remedial student, our products and services offer students expanded educational opportunities. Our Business Lines Managed Public Schools Virtual Public Schools The majority of our revenue is derived from full-time virtual public schools that we manage. In addition to access to our course catalog, course materials and, in certain cases, student computers, we provide these schools with a variety of management, technology and academic support services. In full-time virtual managed schools, students receive online lessons over the Internet and utilize offline learning materials we provide. Students receive assignments, complete lessons, and obtain instruction from certified teachers with whom they interact online, telephonically, in virtual classroom environments, and sometimes face-to-face. For parents who believe their child is not thriving in their current public school or for students and families who require time or location flexibility in their schooling, virtual and blended public schools can provide a compelling choice. Students are also provided the opportunity to participate in a wide variety of school activities, including outings and clubs. In addition to school-level activities, we sponsor a wide variety of extracurricular activities on a national basis, such as clubs, contests and college and career planning sessions. The full-time virtual schools we manage are generally associated with different curricula and orientations. K12 managed schools (often named virtual acadamies) serve K-8 or K-8 and high school students, principally utilize the K 12 curriculum and attract both mainstream and at-risk students. In addition to these virtual academies, we manage Insight schools, which serve middle school and high school students, typically utilize the Aventa curriculum, and tend to attract at-risk students. iq 4
